Indulge in the delightful fusion of textures and flavors with these Fruit Filled Chocolate Tacos—a dessert that’s as fun to make as it is to eat!

Topped with whipped cream and optional garnishes of mini chocolate chips or powdered sugar, this unique treat is perfect for parties, brunches, or family gatherings. With a quick prep time and a visually stunning presentation, these dessert tacos are the ideal blend of sweet indulgence and fruity freshness, making them an irresistible option for any occasion.
Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
In a small bowl, mix the granulated sugar and ground cinnamon. Set aside.
Using a pastry brush, lightly coat both sides of the tortillas with coconut oil. Sprinkle one side of each tortilla with the cinnamon-sugar mixture.
Drape the tortillas, sugar-side up, over the bars of your oven rack to form taco shapes. Bake for 7-10 minutes, or until the tortillas are golden and crisp. Carefully remove from the oven and let them cool completely on a wire rack.
While the taco shells cool, melt the semi-sweet chocolate chips in a microwave-safe bowl in 30-second intervals, stirring after each interval, until smooth. Add 1 tablespoon of coconut oil to the melted chocolate and stir to combine.
Dip the edges of the cooled taco shells into the melted chocolate and place them on a parchment-lined tray. Let the chocolate set at room temperature, or speed up the process by placing the shells in the refrigerator for 5-10 minutes.
Prepare the fruit filling by combining the diced strawberries, blueberries, and diced kiwi in a bowl.
Once the chocolate taco shells are set, carefully fill each taco shell with a dollop of whipped cream followed by a generous scoop of the mixed fruit.
Garnish the tacos with mini chocolate chips and a dusting of powdered sugar, if desired.
Serve immediately and enjoy your delicious fruit-filled chocolate tacos!
